engaged in June 2006, after returning from their backpacking trip to
Peru in April 2006. The wedding
was a testiment to Michelle and Ryan as a couple, anything but
ordinary, including canoes, dance sequences, and pyrotechnics. Most recently, he and his wife received their first true gift, a baby girl named Madilyn Mae Rutan in October 2009. Now starts Ryan's life as a husband AND father ... stay tuned!
